(CHARLESTON, SC) - The Golden Novak Band, Mark Nanni, Brian Golden and Jess Novak, features accordion, violin, keys, guitar, percussion and three vocalists delivering soulful covers and powerful original music.

As a duo, trio and band, Golden and Novak (often joined by Mark Nanni of longtime Syracuse, NY band Los Blancos) perform their large catalog of original music (sporting the material of three singer/songwriters - Golden, Novak, Nanni) as well as covers spanning B.B. King to Bruce Springsteen, Amy Winehouse to TLC.  Novak released her solo debut album, Bad Habit, in December 2013. The duo's full-band self-titled debut album was released in August 2014 and the group has toured from Vermont to Florida, performing more than 200 live shows every year. Their music is playing on radio stations worldwide, while reviews of their album continue to come in from both the U.S. and abroad. Golden Novak Band is nominated for a 2015 Sammy (Syracuse Area Music Awards) in the "Best Rock Band" category: http://www.syracuseareamusic.com/news/2015-0203_SAMMY_Nominees_and_Inductees.html.

"Folk-blues material that will appeal to genre fans who will be drawn to Novak's throaty, resonant vocal tones and Golden 's agility on the frets. 'New Song', Novak's ballad, is easy on the ears, proving herself a soulful presence on the mic. We could hear this relationship-themed tune making it onto a Lifetime Network TV show."
